Save Money on Rip Rap Installation When You Share the Cost with Your Neighbor!

Rip rap is rock of various sizes that is placed at the base of seawalls. Its purpose is to absorb and dampen the impact energy of waves before they reach the seawall, reduce rebound waves toward your dock, provide bank stabilization, and lessen shoreline erosion. Installing rip rap at the Lake of the Ozarks helps protect your shoreline from eroding away. If you're considering installing rip rap, One Source Services offers a discount if you and your neighbor install rip rap at the same time! Read on to get all the details!

Both parties will be required to purchase their own rip rap, but we offer a special discount for the barge fee. 

3 Reasons to Install Rip Rap! 

Give Your Shoreline a Natural Look

Rip rap consists of various sizes of stone, so it's great solution for "natural looking" seawall construction at Lake of the Ozarks. Using stone versus concrete, wood, or vinyl will give your shoreline a more natural and appealing look. It also allows animals and organisms to pass through promoting the local ecosystem.

Erosion Protection

Rip rap works to absorb incoming waves, rather than reflecting it. This will help to keep the dirt at the bottom of your seawall from eroding away. It will also help protect seawall footings form undermining. This is a wildly common problem for concrete sea walls at the Lake of the Ozarks.

Less Maintenance

Rip rap walls are created from stone piles. The stone piles are not formed or held together by any kind of material. This makes them self-adjusting to small amounts of movements from settlement. Even if minor damage occurs, the rip rap seawall will still function normally. Repairing the damage is easy - simply replace a portion of the rip rap and your shoreline is still protected.

Protect Your Investment

When you own your home, you want to ensure that your investment is protected. Waves can have a major impact on your shoreline and seawall. Installing rip rap can help protect your shoreline. If you are not planning to stay at your residence forever, the quality of your seawall can have an impact on the value of your home. Installing rip rap can help your home to appreciate instead of depreciating due to an eroding shoreline.
